Meals Are No Longer Eaten Alone

Companion Care at Home Spokane Valley, WA: Companions and Seniors

Eating alone is one of the loneliest things to do, but it’s often the case when you live alone. When you arrange companion care at home, your mom doesn’t have to eat alone. She has a caregiver available to eat with her.

Her caregiver can also take her grocery shopping for ingredients, help her plan weekly meal and snack menus, and cook meals for her. Your mom’s supported with friendship, nutritious meals, and an organized kitchen.

She Has Someone to Drive Her

Your mom can’t drive anymore. As her vision changes or her health impacts her ability to operate a car safely, she stays home more. With a caregiver stopping by each week, your mom has someone to drive her to area attractions like museums, art galleries, and theaters.

She can ask her caregiver to take her shopping, join her for lunch out, or take her for a scenic drive. Your mom is able to come and go as she always used to and won’t feel isolated.

Caregivers Can Help With Hobbies

Hobbies stimulate the mind. The creativity helps with cognitive health and reduce stress. Does your mom have a hobby? Can she do it without any help?

Your mom loves to paint, knit, or enjoy another hobby, but it’s hard for her to get started on her own. Have you considered arranging to have caregivers help her? She can have aides help her shop for supplies, set up her workstation, and engage in whatever activity appeals to her.

Her caregiver can help her find a video to follow as she paints a picture. She’ll have a helper with a baking project or someone to join her outside for a photography walk. Caregivers can introduce your mom to the caregiver’s favorite hobby if your mom needs inspiration.

Your mom may not even have a hobby she enjoys yet. She doesn’t know where to start, so her caregiver can help her look into different hobbies and the needed equipment. When she finds something appealing, her caregiver can help her get started.

Companion care at home is the perfect solution to your mom’s loneliness when she lives alone. Talk to a specialist about your mom’s companionship needs. You’ll discover more about pricing and schedules and be able to arrange companion care at home services today.
